Super tasty, with a beautiful cigar box and raspberry nose. Medium body with more raspberry, cedar and sour cherry dancing with the palate. Perfectly balanced with acidity and tannins. She is a smooth one. Sexy! Nothing is out of place. The flavors linger on the back of the tongue and throat for a very long time. Glad I let mine sit for a few years. She is at her peak. I'm loving every sip and sniff. Alluring.

I think this was overated by some experts. Nice nose. Full-bodied and thick, but pretty light in the mouth. Parker said he had a nose of bar-b-q-smoke? Not even close. Musta been cooking bacon during his sip 'n'chew and spit. Look, it's decent all around and pretty fair price for a Chateauneuf. Not a long aftertaste. I enjoy it with beef.

This baby is still getting better. More nose, more cherry, more kirsch, more smoothness and more length. Tastes like a fresh baked cherry pie. Not a huge fan of Oregon Pinot's and I live in Oregon. Always seem to be a bit underwhelmed, especially given the prices. Not this one! Delicious. 2nd day this beauty is at peak velocity. How much flavor can be packed into such a light to medium body? Well, tons. Best Oregon Pinot I've tried. Very fair price. This is my last one and I'm drinking her solo, no food.
